Hi!👋 Ivan here

I'm an industrial engineer with 7+ years of experience in Operations Management and Continuous Improvement.

I serve two main groups of people:

	• Business owners and executives who want to turn their broken processes into brilliant ones (and save so much damn money) through Kaizen and Innovation

	• Founders and consulting firm owners within CI, Lean or Innovation who want to promote their businesses and make LinkedIn a legit revenue channel

(DM me for the details) 


I started writing on LinkedIn in October 2023. 

Since then, I have been sharing actionable, educational, and entertaining content to support LinkedIn community members in their continuous improvement journey. This helped me grow my audience from 9,000 to 100,000 followers in a year.

26 Kaizen Leadership Mantras

Here are the 4 principles that I believe are most powerful (and why):

1/ Gemba never lies; go and see for yourself.

I've seen leaders make terrible decisions because they trusted Excel sheets over their own eyes. The problems that cost us millions are often visible on the shopfloor, but nobody bother to look. Reports tell you what people want you to know. Gemba tells you what's actually happening. I think the moment you stop walking the floor is the moment you lose touch with reality. Your operators won't lie to you if you show up regularly, ask good questions, and actually listen to their answers.

2/ Without psychological safety, Kaizen dies.

I've watched brilliant Kaizen programs collapse because people were terrified to speak up. Companies that blame individuals for systemic problems get exactly what they deserve. Silence. Workers hide defects, skip reporting near-misses, and watch waste happen rather than risk looking stupid or getting punished. I think this is why most Kaizen initiatives fail within a year. You can't improve what people won't talk about, and people won't talk about problems in a culture of fear.

3/ The person doing the work knows it best.

I learned this the hard way early in my career when I implemented a Kaizen idea. The operators supported it, then immediately went back to their old method the moment I left. Every time I've ignored frontline expertise, I've wasted time and money solving the wrong problem. I think we underestimate how much knowledge lives in the hands and muscle memory of people who do the same task hundreds of times daily.

4/ Kaizen culture doesn't support strategy. Kaizen culture is strategy.

I spent years thinking CI was something that helped execute our "real" strategy. I was wrong. Companies with a strong Kaizen culture adapt faster, survive disruptions better, and outperform competitors with superior strategic plans. I think this is the principle most executives miss. Your competitors can copy your products in months, but they can't copy a culture where thousands of people solve problems every single day.

P.S. What's your fav one in the list?

Founder of Gemba Walk AI — I help executives cut waste and fix the broken processes costing them millions

Brutal truth: most Kaizen implementations fail within 6 months.

Here's why (and how to fix it):

Common failure pattern..

↓ Launch with great enthusiasm 
↓ Form improvement teams 
↓ Run some workshops 
↓ See initial results 
↓ Get distracted by other priorities 
 ↳ Kaizen activities fade away

The missing ingredient? 
Systems thinking.

Successful Kaizen requires these systems working together:

1/ Total Quality Management

+Customer focus throughout organization
+Process-oriented improvement mindset

2/ Just-In-Time Production

+Elimination of waste in all forms
+Flow-based operations

3/ Total Productive Maintenance

+Equipment reliability and efficiency
+Operator involvement in maintenance

4/ Policy Deployment

+Clear targets cascading from top to bottom
+Aligned improvement efforts

5/ Suggestion Systems

+Employee engagement in daily improvement
+Recognition of participation

6/ Small Group Activities

+Quality circles and improvement teams
+Collaborative problem-solving
 
Most companies try to implement Kaizen 
…without these foundations. 

Remember:

Success requires patience.

+Start with one system
+Build it thoroughly
+Connect it to others gradually

…and never stop improving!

Founder of Gemba Walk AI • I help executives cut waste and fix the broken processes costing them millions

Most companies create fantastic value stream maps.

Then file them away. (I've seen it dozens of times) 

Video credit to Krish Sengottaiyan. Give him a follow

Teams spend weeks mapping their current state. 

They identify waste. 
They draft the future state

Then ...nothing changes.

You know why?

No one is responsible for the customer experience.

Traditional organizations are function-based.

→ Finance reports to CFO 
→ Operations reports to COO 
→ Sales reports to CRO

Each leader knows their department.
But nobody understands how value flows end-to-end.

No single leader owns value stream performance.

"Everyone" is responsible = No one is responsible

VSM needs an owner with authority. 
One leader who can make decisions across silos.

CEO could, but they operate too high to manage CI.

So it's key to assign executive-level VSM ownership. 

Before you map your next value stream, answer this:

Who owns the complete customer journey?

If you can't name them...
save yourself the effort.

P.S. Does anyone in your organization have E2E accountability for value delivery?

ChatGPT is negatively impacting how our brains work.

MIT revealed what it’s doing (plus a simple fix).

Most of us have felt it:

↳ You start relying on AI for daily work.
↳ Then try doing it alone, and it suddenly feels harder.

MIT’s Media Lab recently ran one of the first studies on how using AI affects our brains.

Over four months, researchers used brain scans to study three groups of people doing a writing task:

• One wrote completely on their own.
• One used Google Search.
• One used ChatGPT.

The results were eye-opening.

The study found that using AI can lead to:

1. Memory loss

➟ 83% of ChatGPT users couldn’t recall a single sentence they had written minutes earlier.
➟ Those who wrote without AI remembered normally.

2. Reduced Brain Power

➟ A 47% drop in brain connectivity was recorded in ChatGPT users.
➟ And the effect continued even after they stopped using AI.

3. Decreased Learning

➟ Mental effort, which drives learning, dropped by 33%.
➟ That’s the price we pay for finishing faster.

The good news:

↳ You don’t need to abandon AI completely.

The research showed that you can still have:

• Stronger memory
• Better brain activity
• Higher-quality work

All while using AI, if you use it intentionally.

Their recommendation ➟ Don’t start with AI.

Start with your own ideas first, then bring AI in later to refine, edit, or expand.

Use it as an assistant or editor, not a substitute for thinking.

Because this isn't the first time our brains have faced this challenge.

We’ve seen this pattern before:

▸ When we type instead of writing by hand.
▸ When we take photos instead of observing.
▸ When we follow GPS instead of navigating ourselves.

Every time we let a tool think for us too early, we weaken our own process.

The solution is simple ➟ be intentional.
↳ Use your brain to think, learn, and create. Then let AI help polish the result.

Here's what to remember: 

When you hand over your thinking too early, you're not just working faster. You're actually rewiring your brain.

AI agents are replacing office workers.

Companies now trust AI with tasks and decisions.

By 2027, 82% of organizations will use AI agents (as reported by Auth0).

Many believe they're using AI, but it's usually smart workflows.

Let’s look at a common task to show the difference.

Imagine scheduling a quarterly business review with a marketing client.


A. Non-Agentic Workflows

Humans do everything with tools based on their commands.

1. A manager knows it’s time for a review.
2. They go through their CRM and calendar.
3. They ask ChatGPT to "write an email to schedule a client call."
4. They copy and then send the email manually.

Humans think. AI simply delivers output based on the user’s request.


B. Agentic Workflows

AI operates within a system of rules and triggers.

1. The calendar detects it’s been 90 days since the last review.
2. The system checks the manager’s availability.
3. It generates a draft email to schedule the meeting.
4. The email is sent automatically.

It's time-saving, but it can’t adapt when conditions change.


C. AI Agents

An AI agent has one clear goal: "Keep clients happy."

1. It monitors the CRM and past conversations.
2. It recognizes it’s time for a review and checks for any updates.
3. It writes a tailored email to the client with suggested time slots.
4. It sends the email and follows up if there’s no response.
